Due to the enduring legacy of the colonial, capitalist project, we have arguably entered an era of social, cultural, economic, and environmental collapse. There is a heightened awareness of a range of global issues including racism and xenophobia, economic and cultural protectionism, environmental degradation, and climate change - yet there appears to be a resistance to taking action that challenges the status quo, maintaining a way of life that continues to divide the world in unequal and inequitable ways, including in education.The complicity of westernized education in contributing to these issues has led calls to decolonize educational ideologies, structures, and practices. In response, the authors present a novel way of thinking and a robust foundation for de/colonizing educational relationships in Higher and Teacher Education, illustrated by examples of applications to practice. A hybrid style of writing weaves their own narratives into the text, drawing on their experiences in a range of educational settings.

The impact of individual appearance on career success, either positive or negative, often remains unspoken or even unconscious within the world of work. Appearance has been shown to influence decisions regarding renumeration, recruitment and promotion through biases such as size and gender discrimination. For women especially, there appears to be a delicate balance between achieving the right look and being perceived as professional. Such issues require a critical examination of the relationship between appearance and careers.Through a sharp intersectional lens honed by experts from across the globe, The Emerald Handbook of Appearance in the Workplace focuses on both internal and external influences that may complicate issues of workplace appearance and further impact the development and progression of individuals' occupations. Thoughtfully structured to consider both theoretical and applied points of view, chapters examine topics such as body art, hair textures, lookism and ageism across a variety of industry sectors and levels of employment.The first of its kind in addressing appearance and careers with varying approaches and across a diverse range of concepts, this Handbook provides an essential overview of the unspoken impact that personal presentation and assumptions can have on how employees are perceived and ultimately progress in their careers.

The pursuit of excellence in business and management doctorates demands a delicate interplay between the capacity to synthesize intricate evidence (the ant hill) while maintaining a panoramic outlook (helicopter view) and crafting theoretical abstractions.

The book provides wide ranging international comparisons and reflections on the purpose and innovations in doctoral education offered by business schools today.Expert contributors analyze North and South American models, European doctorates, insights from the Arab World, doctoral provision in Australia and New Zealand, and ASEAN orientations. These global case studies incorporate explanations about the origins of existing systems and current drivers of behaviour, employment prospects for graduates, the opinions of different stake holders about the relevance of the programmes, and future emerging trends.Business and Management Doctorates World-Wide offers detailed comparative analysis of current practices to highlight reasons for commonalities and differences in different parts of the world with suggestions about lessons shared in diverse contexts.
